General

Permissions can be added to the FEWS configuration to allow users (user groups) to access Explorer tasks, Data Editor functions, Filters, etc..  Permissions can be optionally configured in the following configuration files:

...

• Configure optional permission names in any of the above described configuration files.
• Create the permissions in the permissions configuration file (Permissions 1.00 default.xml) and configure usergroup names which should have access to the permissions.
• Create the usergroups in in the usergroup configuration file (Usergroups 1.00 default.xml) and assign them user names.

Configure optional permission names

This can be achieved by adding the optional permission tag to the configuration and give it a self-describing name.

Create the permissions configuration file

When available on the file system, the name of the XML file is for example:

      Permissions 1.00 default.xml

      Permissions                            Fixed file name for the permissions configuration

      1.00                                            Version 00                                       Version number

default                                         Flag       default                                    Flag to indicate the version is the default configuration (otherwise omitted).
